The OAT.... I think the reading OAT was easy. There was only a few questions that were hard but most of them were easy. I was not in a rush and I was not scared not even a little. I was just thinking that I was going to get a god score on the test and I was going to pass the test. I can't believe that people were scared of the test. When you really get into the test it does not even fell like you are taking a test that you have to do good on. The math OAT was very easy I can not even believe that people were afraid of that to( like Destiny).

The cause in my book is when Bella sliced her finger opening her present from Edward . The effect is she had to get stiches in her arm when she fell.
1/21/09 twilight
Today in my book was when Edward told Bella that he loves her more than she loves him and when Bella got to meet Alice Edward's sister and Edward told her to go and wait for him in the car. Also Edward told Bella that he is going to be gone for the weekend.

Jessie twilight is a grate book wright know I'm going on the 3rd as soon as i can find it hahaha! Well so are you going to keep going on to the 2nd 3rd and 4th book? I think you should and I hope you go on and like them!
1/6/09 Twilight The main character in my book is Bella. My opinion of Bella is that she is a very different character and that she does not have a lot of self esteem because she always get embarrassed and shy. Like the time she first sat by Edward she was so shy that she put her between him and her so that he could not see her. So when she wanted to see him she would look through her hair.
1/5/09 Two Goals for 2009
One of the goals I have for 2009 is I want to have all A's for the rest of the year. I do have two A's but I want all A's. I have been trying to do this for 2 years but it did not ever work out for me. I think that this is the year for me and that I can do anything this year. I could Get all A's or maybe just maybe there will something else that will happen.
Another goal for 2009 is I want to be the kid that all of the teachers like. I want to get all of my work done. I want to get it done on time. I will Turn it in completed and not missing anything. I will not miss one assignment. Those are my TWO GOALS FOR 2009!!!!!!!!

Hi Jess, I really think this book is a really good fit for you. I think I would like to be Meg right about then, to have 110,000 dollars I would have to scream.
But then that's also a bad thing that they don't have a lot of money! I think that it's really cool to see people that you haven't seen in a long, long, time.
That's also cool their uncle was a very bad driver( it probably would be fun driving with him)! Do you enjoy reading this book? Is their any one that you would compare your self to?
12/18/08 On The Run 2
Today in my book Meg and Aiden found their aunt that they have not scene for a very long time. At fist they did not know if that was the right person then they asked her name and it was the right name. they started talking about their uncle and his wife said that he was a very bad driver.
12/17/08 On The run 2 The major problem of my book On the Run 2 is that Aiden and Meg have to get some money to live on and so Aiden has to work and he gets 12 bucks an hour. while Aiden was out working Meg went to the library to get her moms sky points her mom had and she had over 110,000 so they could afford a suite at a hotel. Other problems are that aAden and Meg stole a ATV and they are being chased by the FBI.
12/10/08 Drive By
One event in my book was when Jimmy was gunned down right in front of his little sister Mina, and his little brother Tito. Jimmy did die and his family does not know who killed him. It is important because If you did not know jimmy died the rest of the book would not make any since. Another event in my book was when Tito went down in his crawl space and there was lots of spider webs and he got covered then a car pulled up and they started pulling walls out with a crow bar then they went out and and they drove away. Later Trio turned on his flashlight again and he found a suitcase he crawled over there and he opened it and there was a note and the note said that Jimmy was a gang banger and after he read the note there was lots and lots of money so Tito could move his family to a place where Tito and is mom and his sister can live and not worry about getting killed. I thought the book Drive by was a very wonderful book and I loved every moment of it.
12/4/08 Drive By
I love the book Drive By and now it is on my web page on the part where my favorite books are. I love every moment of the book and I do wish the book was like 200 pages long but it is not. Almost every chapter you are on the edge of your seat. I love this book and I hope they come out with another book that is like 200 pages long!!!!!!!
12/4/08 I Had Trouble In Getting To Solla Sollew
I think the so what in the bookI Had Trouble In Getting To Solla Sollew is that you should not let your troubles get in the way of what you are doing. You should not let them bother you in any way. But if they are really bothering you, you can fight back and can just go on in you life and tell you troubles that they are not getting in your life and that they are not going to stop what you are trying to do.
12/03/08 Mr. McGuire said
Are you enjoying Drive By? This is usually a sixth grade favorite because it is so exciting.
12/2/08 Drive By
Today in my book Tito and his mother and his sister Mina moved in to Mrs.Washington's house and they are paying rent to live there. There are two bedrooms upstairs and Mina and Tito get there own room. One night Tito woke up in the middle of the night and There were people breaking in the house And the dog Spider was in the bed with Tito and Tito could not go to sleep because the dogs claws were going into Tito's back but Tito was getting scared and so he did not sleep very good.
11-19-08 A Mother To Embarrass Me

11/18/08 A Mother To Embarrass Me
At the of the book I think that laura's sister will die. Laura and her mom will get closer and they will be like before her mom got pregnant. Or the baby will live and Laura and her mom will fight more and more.
11/17/08 A Mother to Embarrass Me
One prediction that I made that is that Aiden and Meg was wrong was that I thought that Quinn would go to Laura's party and he did not he went with his girlfriend somewhere and I felt sorry for Laura because she was turd down right in front Christian (Quinn's brother). when laura gets embarrass her face gets red and she starts to sweat a little. Another prediction that I had that was wrong was when Laura had her party and her mom and dad started dancing to Micheal Jackson music (Beat it) and then at first she started to be Embarrass then she felt proud.
11/15/08---Brianna
That sounds like a book that is true !LOL!
11/14/08 Jacob Y.
This sounds like a good book,
11/14/08 A mother To Embarrass Me Today my book Laura's mom Got pregnant and Laura was very mad so her mom and her dad threw her a Boy and girl party and at first her mom was taking charge and she was acting like it was her party. Laura got mad and her mom felt sorry so she let Laura chose who she wanted to come to her party and the bot she likes Ouinn is a twenty year old that has a girlfriend and Laura aks him if he wanted to come then his girlfriend comes out and says that she did not invite him to a party that she went to . Then Laura's dad and mom come out and he starts dance like it was the 80's.
Bailey M. said-Jessika you have a good way to put what your books about it is very neat and you only have one word miss spelled. If I were grading it I would give you a A+.
11/13/08 A Mother To Embarrass Me The main character in my book is Laura and her mom is really embarrassing her mom listen to old music like the Beatles. Laura like a boy named Quinn she said that she loved him in the book. Sometimes Laura loves her mother and some time she wishes that she did not know her. At Laura's school they had a career day thing and some of the other kids parents was a three-dimensional artist another parent was a inventor and one was a stay at home mom. Then came laura's mom dressed in jeans and a old t-shirt but she did not embarrass Laura. Laura was proud of her mom. 11/12/08 Mr. McGuire said

11/11/08 James E. said
this book sounds really good I would like to read it.
11/11/08 To Kill A Mocking Bird The best part in my book so far is when dill was walking by a very old house and there is a tree that had a shinny piece of foil in the hole in the trunk of the tree. It was a piece of gum but the person that lived there was a very old mean lady her name is Mrs.Dubose. There was two pieces of gum in the tree and Dill toke both of them and he shoved them in his mouth. Later Jean Show how much gum he had in his mouth and jean asked him where he got the gum and Dill Told him and Jean told him to spit it out. Dill did because Jean told him that it was poisoned but6 it really was not. The next day when Dill went by the woman's house there was another piece of gum
11/10/08 To Kill A Mocking Bird. Today my book is at the part where Dill says he can predict when people are going to die. Dill said that his friend Jean had three days until he died. Jean did not believe Dill. Jean said that if you do not hush up that he will knock Dill bowlegged.
11/7/08 To Kill A Mocking Bird My prediction in my book is that Dill and his little brother will go to the meanest old woman who ever lived house and her name is Mrs. Mrs.Dubose's house. I also think that they will take another piece of gum from the tree. I would not tell my little sister to bug off I would talk to her and play with her at resses. I had some words that i did not understand and maybe you can help me understand them they are the words

If you had a younger sister in third grade, would you talk to her at school? Or would you tell her to bug off? Please use capital letters for the first letter in a proper noun (like Dill).
11/6/08To Kill A Mocking Bird
Right now my book is to the part where Dill and and his little brother went to school and Dills brother is in the first grade and dill is in the sixth grade I think or maybe it was the fifth grade dill said to his little brother not to talk to him at school.
I think the reading OAT was easy. There was only a few questions that were hard but most of them were easy. I was not in a rush and I was not scared not even a little.
